Patricia was employed as the office manager with Stokely USA canning company in Merrill for many years, until her retirement.  Family was a priority in Patricia’s life.  She enjoyed picnics with her family, traveling around the U.S. for family vacations and hosting family holiday gatherings.  Patricia was fond of working on puzzles, playing cards, and reading.  She will be fondly remembered for her sense of humor and contagious laugh.  Patricia was a member at St. Francis Xavier Catholic Church in Merrill.  She will be sadly missed.
